It's the most comprehensive comparison of using Gson versus Jackson for common JSON-to/from-Java tasks known. The sections below walk through each section of the Gson user guide, demonstrating similar implementations with Jackson. API features beyond what is described in the Gson user guide are then reviewed. | Link To This Articlehttp://goo.gl/YuYhx |

Deserialize JSON with Jackson into Polymorphic Types - A Complete Example
Jackson API Versions NoteThe following code examples were written using Jackson 1.7.x or 1.8.x. They probably work as-is with Jackson 1.9.x, but Jackson 2.0 introduced API changes significant enough that this code does not compile with it. On initial review, it appears that package names changed, and at least one method signature changed or was moved or was renamed or no longer exists. In the near future, I may post updated code examples that use Jackson 2.x.tl;dnrSkip to the fourth, fifth, and sixth examples.Why This Post ExistsWhile recently answering a question on StackOverflow.com about deserialization of JSON into polymorhpic types in Java, I couldn't find a simple and complete example using Jackson. At the time of this writing, the official documentation on the subject describes aspects of how to do this, but it doesn't have a full example. Searching other resources also didn't turn up any complete examples. | Link To This Articlehttp://goo.gl/nVKBZ |
Following are deserialization examples with Jackson that build up to a complete example of populating a polymorphic data structure in Java. The first three examples do not involve Polymorphism. Polymorphism is introduced in the fourth example.
